Defining Decades: 4 Millennial Style Icons Shaping Fashion Trends

A fashion icon is someone confident in the styles that they wear. Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly, and others popularized this concept. But nowadays, people like Kate Middleton and Victoria Beckham have also become immortalized as style icons. However, another unignorable fact is that who is iconic depends on your age.

These days, Kendall Jenner and Selena Gomez have taken over fashion, one street at a time. Everyone dresses following what they like. However, we cannot deny that these style icons have helped cement how millennials view fashion.

Kendall Jenner

If we’re looking at someone who can potentially be the face of Seiko watches and is a renowned style icon, we might be looking at Miss Kendall Jenner. Overnight, she got people’s attention, with her face plastered everywhere. Despite her family’s reputation for drama, she also stays out of the negative spotlight. People have reported that she is down-to-earth and values her modelling career greatly.

She remains one of the highest-paid models in the world. Alongside her sister, the CEO of Kylie Cosmetics, Kylie Jenner, they have a fashion line: Kendall + Kylie.

Victor Cruz

The New York Giants wide receiver has made waves in the fashion world thanks to his signature sneaker line with Nike and his friendship with menswear designer Ronnie Fieg. Not only has he been able to use Instagram to elevate consumers’ preferences, but he’s also been savvy at social media to give away kicks to his fans.

Regardless of fashion or sports, Victor Cruz can certainly do both. He has been good at these things for years, and we hope to see more from him. His brand continues to grow.
